This week I chatted to special effects make up artist Jon Moore. 

It was difficult for me not to geek out on this one as Jon as worked on Marvel Cinematic Universe  movies like Captain America the First Avenger, Avengers Infinity War, Avengers Endgame and all of the Guardians of the Galaxy Movies as one of the team that makes up Dave Bautista as Drax. 

Jon’s also worked on The Witcher, Doctor Who, Red Dwarf, Game of Thrones, check out his IMDB profile and you’ll see most of the biggest shows of the past 10 years. 

This is a great one if you are interested in special effects make up and want to find out how Jon got into the industry and his advice to help you do the same. He also gave me some great tips on the practicalities of working on big productions. It’s also a fascinating look behind the scenes on some of Marvels biggest hits. Enjoy!
